Report
I got in touch with Design Studio architects about how we can transform an institutional looking lounge and separate dining room into something special, at our care home fir older people with sight loss in Rushey mead. They listened, took great care to be accessible in design, and gave us a wonderful open plan living area we would never have been able to create ourselves. Thank you DSA TEAM
